When starting your weight loss journey, one of the first things that crosses your mind is “how do we cut out all the ‘naughty’ foods” …. particularly desserts. But did you know that you don’t have to give it all up?
Here are our tips and tricks on how to still enjoy dessert:
Moderation is key, always!
You might’ve heard the age-old phrase, ‘moderation is key’ and honestly it couldn’t be closer to the truth!
If you want to enjoy a sweet treat or dessert whilst losing weight, treating yourself can actually prevent those intense, uncontrollable cravings that tend to derail our diets. Often when people ‘binge eat’ or really go to town on their sweet tooth it can be connected to emotions such as stress, anger and sadness. By allowing yourself to have everything in moderation you can find happiness in losing weight the easy way with The Lady Shake!
Choose wisely
It’s all about choice. Choose desserts that are low in sugar. For example, our new The Lady Shake Mousse range is a high protein, low sugar dessert. It is an instant mousse designed to satisfy your sweet tooth whilst being a healthy choice.
Portion control
It's not about saying "no" to dessert, but rather saying "yes" to portion control.
Choose a smaller serving size of something you know you’ll savour and enjoy. A smaller portion can satisfy your sweet tooth while minimising the extra calories. Consider sharing dessert with a friend, opting for a mini version, or even preparing your own healthier versions at home.
Mindful food choices can lead to satisfying treats!
One of the secrets to enjoying dessert while losing weight is mindfulness. Savouring the flavours, textures, and aromas. By eating slowly and consciously, you’re able to truly relish every bite.
When you're more aware of the food you’re eating, you're less likely to overindulge and more likely to recognise when you’re full and content!
